Brocade VDX 6720 40-port switch

The Brocade VDX 6720 is a managed 40-port data centre switch built for virtualised environments. It targets operators who need a rackmount fabric foundation that simplifies Layer 2 design and improves network utilisation.

Rackmount fabric integration

The unit mounts in a standard rack and participates in a Brocade VCS Ethernet fabric, freeing the architecture from traditional hierarchical constraints. It requires compatible fabric neighbours and management tooling to deliver the intended scale-out topology.

Sustained fabric operation

Under continuous load the switch maintains fabric-wide forwarding state and consistent latency across the 40 ports. It is engineered for persistent traffic patterns typical of cloud workloads rather than brief burst handling.
